Dynamic Lighting issues

Looking for some dynamic lighting trouble shooting tips. I was using a map from 12 months ago last night. Was fine a year ago, now major issues: 1) could not enable light for individual characters when clicking on their icon 2)one player was seeing the entire map despite fog of war enabled 3) one player was seeing white screen. I know there have been some legacy lighting upgrades to the system. My setup doesnt seem to be handling them. Im on google chrome. Any advice appreciated.
As for your second point: this can happen (happened to me multiple times) when explorer mode is enabled. You are able to see the whole map but not in color (if there is color) but in grey as if you have explored the whole map. The third can happen if there is an error with your graphics card (GPU). In order to fix this, you need to reload the site (F5). As for your first point it seems those tokens don't have Vision enabled in their token settings. Could you post a screenshot of those token settings? Jody Nixon said: Looking for some dynamic lighting trouble shooting tips. I was using a map from 12 months ago last night.

Hi Jody! You mentioned Legacy Lighting. Are you using the deprecated system? AFAIK, there has been no change to that code base in probably something approaching two years. It is very rare to see a report referring to the old lighting system. If this is the case, I would suggest switching over to the current system, which is far more powerful and performative. (Make a backup of your game, first!!!) .  See if that handles the problems you've been experiencing.
